Gear: Rio Announces New Saltwater Fly Line

Rio products announces another addition to their fly line offerings for 2011. The Saltwater Outbound® Short.

From their press release:

11.29.2010– The new Saltwater OutBound Short from RIO is an incredibly easy loading, fast casting line that gives fly fishers a huge advantage when targeting moving fish. The front-weighted head is slightly heavier than the AFTMA standard, empowering this line to load a rod instantly, and with an overall head length of only 30 feet and a short rear taper, it easily allows anglers to make fast, one-shot casts.

RIO designs lines to give anglers an advantage in every fishing scenario, and the new Saltwater Outbound Short is no exception. It has a 10 ft long clear, intermediate tip that is ideal for spooky fish and for coping with tough winds, and features a hard, tropical coating, manufactured with AgentX, DualTone and XS Technologies for the maximum in slickness and performance. The line is built on an easy-stretching, medium stiff core that ensures the line does not wilt in the heat and includes welded loops on both ends for fast, easy rigging.The RIO Saltwater Outbound Short is ideal for fast moving fish such as tarpon, permit and trevally. They are available between WF8 and WF12, with a MSRP of $79.95, from all authorized RIO dealers. More info is available via the Rio Products website.
